Obituary

On this occasion of Arthur ("Jr.") Brown's celebration of life, we take comfort in knowing that our God who sits high and looks low, has a better place in His Holy Kingdom for "Jr." On October 3, 1925, the home was blessed with the birth of a little boy, Arthur Brown, to the late Elijah and Ellen Graham Brown of Lake City, Williamsburg County, South Carolina. On Saturday, November 5, 2011, in Moncks Corner, SC, he was called to his eternal rest. "Jr." or "Papa", as he was affectionately called, received his education in the public school system of Williamsburg and Berkeley Counties. Jr. was united in Holy Matrimony to Dorothy Lawyer Brown. This union was blessed with seven children. His wife, one child and two brothers, Eddie and Jimmie preceded him in death. Seaman Second Class Arthur Brown was a veteran of the United States Navy in the Personnel Separation Center, where he served during World War II. Jr. was enlisted from 20 Apr 1944 to 18 Apr 1946. He received an American Area Campaign medal and a World War II Victory Medal. He received an Honorable discharge. He was a licensed carpenter and was employed with Santee Cooper (Jeffries Hydro Station) as an "A" mechanic for 34 years. Jr. retired on June 28, 1985. Jr. was a delight to his friends and a joy to his family. He loved fishing and planting in his garden. He was loved by many and will be greatly missed. His fond memories will be cherished by: his children, Patricia Brown, Victoria (Julius) Martin, Rev. Jeanette B. Snipe, Arthur (Paula) Brown, III, Johnny (Ida) Brown and Pearlie M. Brown; eight grandchildren; fourteen great-grandchildren; three sisters, Rosa (Sammy) Rivers, Mary Ann (W.J.) Epps and Viola Bradley; six sisters-in-law; two brothers-in-law; a goddaughter, Luella Haymon; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
